Well, after that barn burner on Thursday Night Football, I’m not sure the NFL can live up to my expectations. I mean, it’s not every week when you get to watch a team journey about 2,000 leagues under rock bottom, but the Browns appear to be the hero we need, not the one we deserve. And if your levels of misanthrope and despondence are running low, the Bears against the Bucs, Rams versus the Jets, and Texans at the Jags have got you covered. There are some interesting games today though, if you’re into that sort of thing (really?) with the Cowboys visiting Pittsburgh and a Super Bowl rematch between the Seahawks and Patriots. There probably won’t be any mistaken calls at the goal line involving Marshawn Lynch, but never underestimate Seattle’s offense to not ef things up. They’ve become quite good at it, and I’m quite sure that Bill Belichick has noticed, while also trolling all the Dion Lewis fantasy owners out there. Just chewing gum and walking at the same time I suppose. Though, this is coming from a guy who endorsed a Cheetos Puff for president, so I’ll consider anything he says as “dubious” for now.

Be sure to check out our Start and Sits for today’s games here, along with Rudy’s updated projections for Week 10 by clicking here. And as always, our updated rankings are available after the jump!

Select the “Flex” tab if you need a more complete picture to decide your starts and sits. Use the “OP” tab for 2QB Leagues. And you can access our Half PPR and PPR rankings using the drop down box in the top left of our rankings when you select the RB, WR, TE, or Flex positions. Any and all questions will be answered below…

seems like doug martin and carlos hyde will play, but both will be limited i guess. does this change rankings? i need to start 3 among rob kelley, dujuan harris, peyton barber, paul perkins, bilal powell and will tye. thanks!

@porzingod: Those are kinda baked into the rankings, as I ordered them on that based on last nights news. I am doing some minor updates as I’m answering questions though. Out of those three, probably Kelley, Powell and Perkins.

I have a pile of RB’s on the outs; Ryan Mathews, Matt Jones, Christine Michael & now possibly Devontae Booker. Kapri Bibbs is available. Should I be cutting one of these RB’s loose to handcuff Booker w/Bibbs? Thanx for all the great write-ups & advice Jay!

@Jay: I was leaning toward dropping Ryan Mathews or Matt Jones. I still think Jones gets another shot at it, but both are in the doghouse right now. Christian Michael is losing touches too and Rawls returns soon also. I would keep Booker and hope he or Bibbs steps up.

With Fuller inactive coming out of the bye, are you OK dropping him in half-PPR? I need a K this week, and my only other drop options are Bibbs (I also have Booker and want to see what happens this week) or the SEA or NYJ DST (was hoping to hold SEA but didn’t want to start them @NE this week).

I could also wait to see what happens in the 1pm games in terms of my matchup (i.e. whether I can go without a K altogether) and the DEN backfield, and just grab a K from the late games if necessary.

RB help please:
1) pick 1 in PPR: Barber, McKinnon, Harris, or Jennings?
2) pick 2 in PPR: Bibbs, Barber, Powell, Ryan Mathews? I think I need upside in order not to get crushed this week. Not that these guys are the ones to do it…

@Jay: i’ve been saying it for years, fantasy community needs to union up and get it so that the actual NFL actually respects us as anything other than ad slaves. if it cost them money when they lie about stuff like that they wouldn’t do it. not just for football, all sports.

@The Harrow: obviously, NFL is actually the WORST one to expect anything like this, the NFLPA so weak they allow the GODdell kind of dictatorial shit (and it’s right there in their agreed upon contracts too)

Damn, I really could’ve used Britt’s floor today as opposed to hoping for the best with Hightower or even Jarvis Landry. Oh another interesting thing about my league – there’s a guy who wakes up at 3am/4am to pick up guys before/after waivers are processed so he hardly ever uses it. 2 weeks ago he picked up Britt after I dropped him, and I guess after all the waivers were processed, he was still a free agent. Really wished I dropped Parker instead.

@Beware the Shit Rope: I’m not even sure I’d do that if it was a money league. At least, I’d like to think I wouldn’t. The only reason I get up that early is because I have go to the bathroom, and even then I’m trying to negotiate my way through it.
